soooooo that line for a ~1 year to buy a laptop from there ... is what ? Ow and the fact that i need to wait close to half a year to get JUST the MOBO ... yeah sure. Whatever.

I bought one for myself, and a high spec one for my wife's business. Mine is just a personal machine but I've been using it as a portable home server in my various moves. Very happy with both. They didn't seem a crazy amount more than similar spec machines in Europe

I don't buy notebooks. Only used older Thinkpads, particularly for coreboot/libreboot support.

Not readily available in Australia, I associate it with Linus (not torvalds), they're expensive, and god knows if Trump does weird export import stuff the moment it ships, and if it needs repair, nobody would be unsurprised if Trump made us pay to ship it back

Having linus on board is terrible advertising for something that is meant to be good.

Not in the market for a laptop currently but I do intend to keep them in mind since I use Linux.
